You have to be registered to see it, but I took a screen shot, and here's what there is to look forward to (<a href="http://www.colddeadfish.net/images/peepstocome.JPG" target="_blank">http://www.colddeadfish.net/im ages/peepstocome.JPG</a>)! I can't wait! I'm going to need one of each. Time to haunt Target and Party City for the next month or two! /cs

Originally Posted By nevadarebel you can definately have my share of peeps, as I think that they are the worst thing in the world but this is my opinion and understand the attraction to them as I have children who were freaking out in the store the other day until I bought them some.

Originally Posted By Waistcoated Rabbit I don't enjoy eating peeps as much as I enjoy looking at them lol! They're so cuute! With that said, I'm really glad that they've started making merchandise (like stuffed toys and pillows) that actually look like peeps! This reminds me.. a few Easters ago I got a little too bored with my peeps..and this is what happened. lol <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/b3stn1ghtmar3/EVIL2.jpg" target="_blank">http://img.photobucket.com/alb ums/v78/b3stn1ghtmar3/EVIL2.jpg</a>

Originally Posted By LacyBelle I'm wondering if those new sugar-free peeps will be just as satisfying as the fully leaded ones. I'll have to give them a try when they make it to the store shelves.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan I like Peeps but only when they're good and stale. The way to "harvest" Peeps is to buy them at Easter, make a small slit in the celophane, tuck them away in a cupboard and around mid-August, they're ready to crunch and enjoy! Freezing them is an acceptible alternative for the impatient.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb I like to toast them like a regular marshmallow, the colored sugar gets you that creme' brulee effect. mmmmmmmmmmmm

Being a good son, I was useless, laughing hysterically. ; )
